• Who were the pirates?
• Pirates have existed since ancient times. They
  threatened the trading routes of ancient Greece,
  and captured ships from Roman.
• Pirates were sometimes known as corsairs or
  buccaneers.
• Corsairs were pirates who operated in the
  Mediterranean Sea between the 15th and 18th
  centuries. Corsairs had bases along the Barbary
  coast of north Africa. They built many strong
  fortresses to defend the Barbary ports of
  Algiers, Tripoli and Tunis.
• In the 17th century, buccaneers lived on the
  Caribbean island of Hispaniola and Tortuga. At
  first, they lived as hunters, and shot wild pigs
  with their muskets. Their name came from the
  special wooden huts called boucans where they
  smoked their meat.

The history of Talk Like a Pirate Day

International Talk Like a Pirate Day is a parodic
holiday invented in 1995 by John Baur ("Ol'
Chumbucket") and Mark Summers ("Cap'n Slappy"),
who proclaimed September 19 each year as the day
when everyone in the world should talk like a
pirate. For example, an observer of this holiday
would greet friends not with "Hello", but with
"Ahoy, me hearty!" The date was selected because
it was the birthday of Summers's ex-wife and
consequently would be easy for him to remember.

Talk like a Pirate!
Seamen in the days of sail spoke a language far
apart from the norm. It was so full of technical
jargon to understand.

• Ahoy Hey!
• Avast Stop!
• Aye Yes
• Arrr! can mean, variously, "yes," "I agree,"
  "I'm happy," "I'm enjoying this beer,"
• Booty treasure
• Davy Jones' Locker the bottom of the sea, where
  the souls of dead men lie
• Doubloons pieces of gold
• Fiddlers Green the private heaven where pirates
  be going when they die.

Pirates lovely song

• It's great to be a pirateAnd live a life of
  pleasureWe fight with swords and swing from
  ropesAnd hunt for buried treasure.We make our
  prisoners walk the plankSharks love us when we
  feed em.We wear those patches on our eyesWhen
  we don't even need em.CHORUSIt's great, it's
  great - It's great to be a pirate!It's great,
  it's great - It's swell to be bum.It's great,
  it's great - It's great to be a blackguard.It's
  great, it's great - Its so delicious to be
  viciousThrilling to be scum.It's great to
  conquer ships at seaAnd steal what isn't
  oursAnd smell like stinky sneakersCause we
  never bathe or shower.It's great to get shot at
  all the timeAnd lose an arm or leg.And every
  morning get to chooseA stylish hook or peg
